Research Summary

1. Choose one concept or topic discussed in your textbook from Lesson 1-6.

2. Connect with library databases using a variety of key words associated with your topic.

As you are exploring:

a. ALWAYS check the box that says "peer reviewed."

b. Check to see that the type of article is a true research article (not an opinion piece or editorial called descriptive article). Some databases have an "empirical" article designation that will help you identify these articles. If you have any question about the appropriateness of your article, please ask for a pre-check from me on the article.

c. Read the abstract for initial understanding. If the abstract seems like a foreign language (or does not have an abstract), go on to another article.

3. Write the full citation in APA format at the top of the page.

4. Re-write the abstract IN YOUR OWN WORDS. Then, answer the following questions in complete sentences:

a. What are the authors examining?

b. How did they do the study? (What did they measure and how did they measure it?)

c. How many people did the study include?

d. How did they get people to participate?

e. What are the top two to three findings from this study?

f. How can we use this knowledge in social work practice?
